I'll keep it short and sweet: I've put together a small tool that converts (almost) any image to the corresponding Monospace-Font pixel string - and therefore makes it easy to get pictures on LCD screens in game without the need of any mods. I was looking for something like this, but couldn't find anything, so I gave it a try myself.

All you do is take an image, resize/crop, convert - paste it to LCD screen in game (which should have the Monospace font on 0.1 font size) - and you're done!

Here's a video of it in action:

You can, of course, download a copy. (I noticed that when I tested the download myself Chrome found it 'suspicious' and required an extra click; not sure why. It's a standard .NET 4.6 WinForms app - if you want to gut it with a a .NET reflector be my guest, it'll be on Github soon anyway).

Feedback is always appreciated; I haven't spent any time figuring out actual image sizes for anything but a large ship wide lcd (so if you feel like doing that... I'll happily add the numbers and selections if someone were to provide them). I'll see if I can get some feedback of any sort first, and do plan to toss this on Github shortly.
